Okay so you slipped 10 pounds,do not say what the use & feel so lost you end up gaining 10 more to give you a total of 20. Then you will really feel miserable. stay focused on what you can do to change this, start working out again, measure your portions, read the articles in sparks.When I go out to a restaurant I would panic, because I did not know how to handle the food, now I can go & it is a challenge how I am going to eat & walk out of that restaurant feeling good that I made good choices. You can do this .Start right now not tomorrow,but NOW!!!! Let me know how you are doing in a week Judy

Oh my gosh, I had that happen with 5 pounds, but it actually motivated me when I started being good again and finally beat the hurdle I had been dancing with for WEEKS. I gained the 5, took the high road and next thing I knew I was down 8 total and now I know I can do this... you can too! You aren't alone :-)

I've lost the same 5 pounds twice, and now I'm back for round 3... Try to stick to a routine- I found that the times I've gained weight back it's always been after some break in my schedule. You can do it! You did it once, and you can do it again! - by ELLIE09

"Just keep swimming" I'm in the same boat and am having a hard time getting back into working out regularly. I walked yesterday after only a week of nothing, and it was tough, but I walked! Usually once I start walking again I keep going. Every once and a while I fall off track. Don't give up. I gained 10 lb back too :( - by ATORRES381

Back again after falling off the wagon! Didnīt help to open a cafe! Now I am visiting Spark every day. That go me down 20 pounds before. Think now I want to meet my goal of 60 pounds! So visit, write, plan!
